I believe there're plenty bitcoind instances running, but they don't have
configured port forwarding properly.There's uPNP support in bitcoind, but
it works only on simple setups.
Maybe there're some not yet considered way how to expose these *existing*
instances to Internet, to strenghten the network. Maybe just self-test
indicating the node is not reachable from outside (together with short
howto like in some torrent clients).
These days IPv6 is slowly deploying to server environments, but maybe
there's some simple way how to bundle ipv6 tunnelling into bitcoind so any
instance will become ipv6-reachable automatically?
Maybe there're other ideas how to improve current situation without needs
of reworking the architecture.

When you argue that Bitcoin doesn't have the right incentives (and<br>
thus something??) I retort that the actual resource _requirements_ are<br>
for the protocol very low. I gave specific example numbers to enable<br>
correction or clarification if I've said something wrong or<br>
